Restaurants in many ways suffer from the same thing: high rents on commercial spaces drive a lot of their cost.

I don't think he was even saying they were paying $20M in server costs. He was saying that if their claim that they're missing out on $20M in potential revenue from those users is correct, they should buy the app for $10M and make

I was surprised after MH370 that there isn't a beacon or flight recorder on the surface of the plane, that's buoyant and detaches on immersion. Though I assume the engineering and regulation means such a thing has a decade+ lead t

You could always have some breakers that could only be pulled by the chief flight attendant, or at least signal to someone in the cabin they were being pulled.

I wonder if this could also actually work against reddit's interests. I'm guessing that a lot of the power users / mods have the highest API load, by doing things like taking large mod actions. You'd effectively be charg

Probably possible to edit the API key resource without actually needing to see the source code.

This move by reddit is so crazy I can't help but wonder if they're lighting all this user goodwill on fire in the hopes of improving their negotiating stance with folks using reddit for other things (like OpenAI and others trainin

There's also a huge opportunity in taking concepts that are working well elsewhere, and building them for the specifics of your market. For an early example, see Trademe in NZ (basically better rebay, and still completely dominant). If

Seems like the perfect application for some kind of first pass (in the ambulance,even) automated ML diagnostic, given the data is 2D, well characterized, and mostly repeating. Edit: aha-- https://www.nature.com/articles/

I've got to admit I was pretty surprised when I learned about the pay + hard work setup for semi engineers at TSMC in Taiwan. I'd be curious if anyone has any first hand experience with it.

Isn't the string comparison claim also wrong? Although plenty of UUIDs are passed as strings in eg JSON, I was under the impression that where performance really matters (like db indexes) they were stored and compared as 128 bit fields

And you have staffing contracts negotiated by relatively powerful unions that require some of these things.

This is a pretty cool idea, at least to experiment with. If you use ZSH, I made a ZSH plugin version based on the article: https://github.com/antonjs/zsh-gpt

Looking at one or two of the photos, it seems hard to believe they didn't know. https://www.kcur.org/news/2023-02-17/child-labor-packers-san...

To pile on, the average weight of male Canadian Geese is > 8 pounds, which is higher than the largest 'large bird' that needs to be tested, and they travel in flocks. I think they worked out that each engine probably ingested t

Circuit breakers trip when there's too much current going through the circuit (enough to melt the wiring for example), and so protect from short-circuits: hot and neutral touching each other, or a short in equipment. GFCIs protect agai

That's one of the things they were doing, but the other machines they were using weren't designed or tested to use diluted samples. At least the sensitivity of the test would suffer, but really it's out of spec and so unknown

The J ban only applies to specific J categories. It seems to still allow researchers/professors/students, but bans the shorter-term exchange-type uses of the visa: working-holiday, au pairs, camp counselors, etc. as well as K-12 t

There are different conceptions of what counts as a synthetic cell, but in this work the DNA is indeed synthetic. They designed their desired genome sequence on a computer, and synthesized the DNA by chemically printing it into segments, an
